Production

edit

Showtime ordered the pilot for Masters of Sex in August 2011,[8] and greenlit it for series in June 2012, with the first season consisting of twelve episodes.[9]

Writer/producer Michelle Ashford serves as showrunner for Masters of Sex. She assembled a majority-female writing staff, although she says this was unintentional.[10]

Ashford created the character of Barton Scully out of a combination of several men whom Masters knew. One of them was gay, but was not the man serving as Provost during Masters's initial study.[11]

Prop master Jeffrey Johnson noted the difficulty of obtaining accurate information about sexual devices from the time period. "They were so taboo it was hard to find research drawings. People didn’t even put them in writing." He obtained some vintage vibrators and dildos for use in the series along with acquiring condoms manufactured in the era (which did not have the reservoir tips of modern condoms). He designed "Ulysses," a transparent dildo with attached camera first seen in the pilot episode, from scratch, along with a diaphragm sizing kit seen in later episodes.[12]

11"Pilot"John MaddenMichelle AshfordSeptember 29, 2013 (2013-09-29)0.998[13]
In October 1956, Washington University researcher Dr. William "Bill" Masters (Michael Sheen) proposes a controversial study of human sexuality but is rejected by his university. Undaunted, he begins the study anyway and hires Virginia Johnson (Lizzy Caplan), a nightclub singer-turned-secretary, as his assistant. Upon learning that their sole subject, prostitute Betty Dimello (Annaleigh Ashford), is a lesbian, Virginia sets about recruiting additional female and male subjects, including Bill's colleague Dr. Austin Langham (Teddy Sears). She enters into a sexual relationship with Dr. Ethan Haas (Nicholas D'Agosto) but he becomes overly attached and eventually physically abusive. Bill induces his wife Libby (Caitlin FitzGerald) to undergo painful and invasive infertility treatments, despite, according to Haas, Bill being the infertile one. Bill suggests that he and Virginia defuse possible "sexual transference" by having sex with each other as part of the study.
22"Race to Space"Michael DinnerMichelle AshfordOctober 6, 2013 (2013-10-06)1.090[14]
Virginia has trouble telling Bill that she cannot accept his proposal, but Bill informs her that Scully has cancelled the study because he found out they were monitoring couples having sex. Bill believes it was Ethan who told Scully and fires Virginia on the spot for sleeping with him. Bill moves the study to a brothel with the help of Betty, but he and the participating prostitutes are arrested shortly after. Meanwhile, after being rejected by Virginia, Ethan tries to replicate their sexual liaison with other girls, but to no avail. Virginia coaxes some reluctant prostitutes to rejoin the study, and Bill temporarily takes her back to work with him, but refuses to commit beyond the day-to-day.
33"Standard Deviation"Lawrence TrillingSam ShawOctober 13, 2013 (2013-10-13)1.042[15]
Bill and Virginia continue working at the brothel but Bill grows increasingly frustrated with the conditions. Betty recruits some men for the study but Bill is nonplussed to learn they are homosexual prostitutes. Betty blackmails Bill into reversing her tubal ligation but the procedure fails, leading Betty to commit to deceiving her fiancé. Haas takes the case of a woman carrying quadruplets but Scully reassigns it to Bill. Bill drops the homosexual men from his study on the grounds that they aren't "deviant" but "deviate", and uses information gleaned from one of them, Dale, to blackmail Scully into allowing the study back into the hospital. Libby learns she is pregnant.
44"Thank You for Coming"Jennifer GetzingerAmy LippmanOctober 20, 2013 (2013-10-20)1.012[16]
With the study back in the hospital, Bill and Virginia recruit new participants on campus. Virginia has a one-night tryst with her ex-husband, George, who appears at the hospital, having signed up as a study participant. Bill begins sleepwalking, possibly due to anxiety. His mother comes to visit, and suggests that she move to an apartment close to them to spend more time with the baby, but this stirs up painful childhood memories of the physical abuse Masters suffered at the hands of his father, and his mother’s inaction in the face of it. Libby's attempt at playing matchmaker with Virginia and Ethan doesn't go smoothly. Ethan ends up forming a relationship with Provost Scully’s daughter, Vivian. Masters snaps at Virginia's son at a dinner party, which disturbs Libby, who witnesses this.
55"Catherine"Michael AptedSam Shaw & Michelle AshfordOctober 27, 2013 (2013-10-27)1.009[17]
When Bill and Virginia expand the study to include couples, they discover that the nature of sex is affected by the participants' attraction to one another. Austin is asked to participate in the study again, but is disappointed that his partner is not Jane, and cannot achieve an erection. This angers him, and he demands that the findings be thrown out and that he be paired with no one else, as Jane will only have sex with him as part of the study, due to the fact that Austin is married. Bill experiences anxiety about becoming a father. Ethan is worried about dating Barton Scully's daughter, Vivian, but she reassures him that they were meant to be together. Libby suffers a miscarriage, a loss that leads Barton to begin to reconcile his relationship with Bill. Virginia deals with her son Henry's resentment and rebelliousness. Bill delivers his stillborn daughter, and later shares a moment with Johnson, during which he breaks down in tears.
66"Brave New World"Adam DavidsonLyn Greene & Richard LevineNovember 3, 2013 (2013-11-03)0.933[18]
In the aftermath of the miscarriage, Libby and Bill vacation in Miami, but Masters is drawn back into his work by a sexually adventurous couple next door, while Libby bites off more than she can chew when she tries to open a dialogue with them. Virginia enlists Jane in an effort to debunk Freud's theory that a vaginal orgasm is more mature one than a clitoral one. Dr. DePaul complains to Masters about the respect given to Johnson, who is often mistaken as a doctor when Masters isn’t around, whereas DePaul is often mistaken for a member of the secretarial pool. She also accuses him of conferring legitimacy upon Johnson because of his sexual attraction to her. Langham finds an unlikely cure for his sexual dysfunction in Barton's wife, Margaret. Bill realizes that it is a disservice to call Virginia a "secretary", and says she will now be called his Research Assistant. He will also hire a secretary to help them both, which will allow Johnson to focus on the study. Virginia informs Bill that female participants in the study have shown or reported that they can orgasm without genital stimulation, and when Masters expresses skepticism at this, Johnson disrobes, attaches the electrodes to her body, and induces him to help her show this to him, initiating a sexual relationship between them.
77"All Together Now"Tim FywellTyler BensingerNovember 10, 2013 (2013-11-10)1.095[19]
Virginia tries to find a new secretary. Bill tries to balance the study and his affair with his home life. Austin continues his sexual relationship with Margaret Scully, while Barton Scully is stabbed by a trio of gay-bashing thugs while waiting in a car cruising for gay sex. Feeling he can't be seen at a hospital, he tries to treat himself, but Masters intervenes and stitches him up. He comes home to catch Margaret in her infidelity, but his indifference to it hurts Margaret, who believes him to be cheating on her with other women. Though Barton insists there are no other women, and that she is everything to him, a hurt Margaret concludes that he does not find her sexually attractive any more. Meanwhile, despite the fact that Bill has decided to give up trying for a baby, Libby asks Ethan to continue with the infertility treatment, in fear that without a child, Bill will grow bored of his life and run away with another woman.
88"Love and Marriage"Michael AptedStory by : Tyler Bensinger
Teleplay by : Michael Cunningham		November 17, 2013 (2013-11-17)1.050[20]
Bill and Virginia decide that the best way to record their study findings is to film them, but to do so they have to hire a cameraman. Johnson redoubles her efforts to get a college degree, but when she learns that Dr. DePaul's Basic Anatomy class is a requirement, DePaul refuses to give her class credit for her work with Masters, though she later concedes that Johnson is one of her better students. Ethan and Austin, both unsure in their relationships, convince each other of the merits of being a married man. Margaret encounters Dale, Scully’s lover, at a bar, and after a brief conversation, in which he states that he is meeting someone there, she sees that the someone is Barton, who had told her that he had a board meeting that night, and who tries to cover by saying that Dale is a graduate student of his, though an emotional Margaret sees through this lie. Barton later tries to tell her that Dale is the pimp who supplies him with prostitutes, while also expressing heartbreak at her infidelity. He subsequently attempts to renew his relationship with his wife, and vows never to cheat on her again, but this does not change the fact that Margaret now realizes that he has never been sexually attracted to her, and wants a divorce. Barton purloins drugs from the hospital and asks Dale to help him with aversion therapy to change his sexuality but Dale refuses. Ethan and Vivian become engaged. Libby faints during a dance lesson and learns she has become pregnant again.
99"Involuntary"Jennifer GetzingerNoelle ValdiviaNovember 24, 2013 (2013-11-24)1.128[21]
Bill and Virginia decide to film external bodily reactions in the study, and hire a filmmaker named Lester to film Jane masturbating. Vivian wants a Christian wedding, and after Ethan reveals he's Jewish, he agrees to convert to Christianity. Estabrooks expresses regret that she never spoke up to oppose the physical abuse Bill’s father inflicted upon him. She also reveals that he had a years-long affair with his secretary, and says she sees that there is something going on between Bill and Virginia, making a comparison between father and son that provokes Bill’s anger. She tells him that he needs to resolve the problems in his marriage. Libby tells Bill that she’s pregnant, but his disbelief that Libby could have gotten pregnant, and her own views on the lack of humanity in his work makes it a less-than-happy revelation. Ethan tells Vivian that he will not convert to Christianity and breaks up with her. Jane sees the footage of her masturbation study, and, displeased with seeing her orgasm "from the outside", refuses to allow it to be used. Virginia agrees to be filmed masturbating, but only if Bill is the only other person in the room, working the camera himself. Bill, in response to his growing feelings for Virginia, attempts to distance himself by paying her for being a subject in the study. Virginia decides she needs to emotionally detach herself as well.
1010"Fallout"Lesli Linka GlatterSam ShawDecember 1, 2013 (2013-12-01)1.076[22]
A young woman named Flora Banks tells Bill and Virginia that she got pregnant from her participation in the study, and wants to know the identity of the father. Bill and Virginia disagree as to whether to maintain study confidentiality or divulge the father’s identity to Flora. Ethan learns he's been denied a future job at the hospital but wrongly assumes his breakup with Vivian is to blame. Barton informs him that it’s because he failed his performance review because some of his superiors had concerns about his professionalism and character, which Ethan interprets as Bill’s doing. This leads to a confrontation and a brief physical altercation between the two. Bill says Ethan has no idea what he’s gotten into, but Ethan says he’d do it again, even at the cost of his job. DePaul struggles to get sufficient funding for her Pap smear proposal, and tries heeding Virginia’s suggestion to use charm when speaking to University Chancellor Fitzhugh, though it does not go well. Margaret consults with a prostitute, who deduces that Barton is gay. She subsequently meets with Austin. Lester makes a romantic overture to Jane, who responds positively. Virginia finds out that the father of Flora’s child is Austin, and informs Austin of this, and gives Flora $2,000 from the study’s discretionary fund, both of which anger Bill. Before he can do anything about it, however, Virginia quits, and goes to work for DePaul as her secretary, telling her that they should try focusing on charming the Board of Trustees.
1111"Phallic Victories"Phil AbrahamAmy LippmanDecember 8, 2013 (2013-12-08)1.234[23]
With Virginia no longer a part of his office, Bill accepts Libby's offer to temporarily serve as his secretary, in order to help him help compile the study work for a hospital-wide presentation. However, in the course of her work, she learns of a file on a couple who had sex in the study 23 times. She questions Bill about it, not realizing that the couple in question is Bill and Virginia. When Bill sees another doctor's presentation put his colleagues to sleep, he becomes determined to grab their attention even if it means presenting provoking, but incomplete, research on the issue of penis size and sexual satisfaction. DePaul and Virginia travel to a medical convention to give a presentation on the Pap smear. When their bus breaks down they are forced to spend a night at a motel, during which DePaul is angered to learn how Bill is compensated for his work, in light of the difficulty she has in securing funds. Because they missed the convention, DePaul instead presents her information to the doctors' wives. She later reveals to Virginia that a Pap smear revealed that she had cervical cancer in her mid-twenties, which led to a hysterectomy. She also reveals that the cancer returned 18 months ago and is past the point of treatment, as it has progressed to her liver. She asks Virginia to carry on her work after she is gone. Virginia's ex-husband George returns home and is dismayed to find Ethan taking care of his children. Though this leads initially to rivalry, Ethan eventually convinces him that he is good for Virginia and the children.
1212"Manhigh"Michael DinnerMichelle AshfordDecember 15, 2013 (2013-12-15)1.207[24]
Margaret confronts Barton about his homosexuality. He intends to pursue electroshock treatment with the hope of curing it, but Margaret has concerns about the risks involved. DePaul takes a more Bill-like approach when speaking again to Chancellor Fitzhugh about funding. But he tells her that the funding Bill gets is due to the patients he brings into the hospital, which DePaul does not. When she says that patients are not referred to her, Fitzhugh says this is because most women don’t want to see a female gynecologist. Bill gives the presentation on his and Virginia's research to the hospital, but it does not get the response he had hoped. Chancellor Fitzhugh stops the presentation, calling the footage "smut". Ethan gets a job offer at UCLA, and proposes to Virginia. Libby later asks Bill who the second woman in the footage was, saying that the two doctors sitting beside Libby thought it was Virginia, but Bill evades her question. The other doctors also deduce that the first woman in the footage is Jane, though she denies this. They also start a petition that spurs Fitzhugh to fire Barton and Bill. Bill covers for Barton by portraying Barton as having been unaware of the study. To complete this illusion, Barton fires Bill in front of Fitzhugh; Barton later regrets this. While Libby goes into precipitous labor and gives birth, Bill goes to see Virginia and tells her he cannot live without her.
